Three creaky wooden stairs Those squeaky rocking chairs
The well worn welcome mat The lattice vines The happy
Times.
All I want to do When the day is through Is linger here on the
front porch with you.
From the wicker swing While the night birds sing We'll watch
the fireflies sparkin' Do some sparkin' too
How the hou-rs fly As the moon drifts by --How sweet the air
As we stare At the sight Oh! How I love to linger here like
this Hold your hand, and
steal a kiss Or two On the front porch with you
All I want to do When the day is through Is linger here on the
front porch With you
From the wicker swing While the night birds sing We'll watch
the fireflies sparkin' Do some sparkin' too (Some sparkin'
too!)
How the hou-rs fly As the moon drifts by -
How sweet the air As we stare At the sight
Oh! How I love to linger here like this Hold your hand, and
steal a kiss Or two
On the front porch with you
(Sung Slowly)
Oh! How I love to linger here like this Hold your hand, and
steal a kiss Or two
On the front porch with you.
